And I'm sure the Post Office is breathing a sigh of relief.

Can anyone confirm the rumor that OJ Man was wearing a track suit?

Really? Most of the time the FA's are just chatting in the galley and reading Us Weekly/People so I really doubt that they could pay any attention to what pax are doing.

Fifty years ago, "stewardess" stereotypes and jokes were all the rage, aircraft were grounded by storms and occasionally had mechanical issues; some things seemingly never change.
But if you had asked for a beverage on a recent SMF-DFW flight, you might go to Helen wait...

It suddenly donned on me that there are more than likely several flight attendants named Helen at American Airlines. I feel sorry for the rest of them, because I'm sure every single one of them will get some dirty eyes from people that read about this story.

that would be stereotyping in a very dumb extreme. kind of like mistreating people named George because you dislike 'W'.

It is required reading, how else would they know who the minor celebs are?
FWIW I think a lot of us are reading People as well, why else would there be so many spottings of semifamous folks?
